EDITORS’ NOTES

Born in the U.S.A. delivered the superstar status that Springsteen fans had always expected. The title track was one of seven hits from U.S.A., which also included the ultra-modern synth-rock of "Dancing in the Dark," the lustful "I'm on Fire," and the quiet, end-of-the-road "My Hometown." Springsteen's ability to make fist-waving, good-time music of troubled stories was at its highest peak here.
